“My personal experience has been so favorable, I would want to encourage other companies to give it a shot. Having never before spent any time with people with disabilities, working with Jacob has opened my eyes to how much people who are blind have to offer.”
-Laurel Fleming, Store Manager, Passport Travel Spa

At Bosma Enterprises, our goal is to eliminate unemployment and underemployment among Hoosiers who are blind who want to work. How big is the challenge we face? The average unemployment rate for people who are blind or visually impaired is a staggering 74%.

Being a good employee isn’t hard for people who are blind. Unfortunately, finding meaningful employment is. At Bosma Enterprises, we’re dedicated to changing that. And with your help, we can do it.

If you’re interested in hiring employees directly, Bosma will assign an experienced Community Employment Specialist to you. This person will be there for you every step of the way. Our specialists can:

• Answer your questions (no question is off limits!)
• Advise you on how to prepare the workplace and work functions for an employee who is blind or visually impaired
• Inform you about possible tax incentives and tax credits associated with hiring an employee who is blind or visually impaired.
• Teach your sighted employees about working with a co-worker who is blind or visually impaired
• Provide onsite job coaching to assure your employees are productive, get the job done, and are successful from the start.
